A high-contrast serif with sturdy, weighty stems and refined hairline connections that create a distinctly chiseled rhythm. Serifs are bracketed and taper to sharp points, with frequent wedge-like endings that give horizontals and diagonals a crisp, cut-on-stone feel. The curves (notably in C, G, O, and S) show pronounced thick–thin modulation and tight apertures, while joins and crotches read deep and sculptural. Lowercase forms are compact and rounded with a strong baseline presence; several letters show teardrop/ball-like terminals (e.g., in a, c, f), reinforcing the high-contrast calligraphic influence. Numerals follow the same dramatic modulation, with a pointed, flag-like 1 and rounded bowls in 6/8/9 that stay heavy and stable.
Well-suited to headlines, deck copy, and prominent editorial typography where its contrast and pointed serifs can be appreciated. It can also work for book covers, magazine identities, and poster titles, especially in settings that aim for a classic, premium voice. For extended reading, it will perform best at comfortable sizes with adequate leading to preserve clarity around the fine hairlines.
The overall tone is traditional and confident, with an editorial seriousness and a slightly theatrical, high-contrast elegance. Its sharp serifs and pronounced modulation evoke established print typography and convey authority, formality, and polish rather than casual friendliness.
The design appears intended to deliver a conventional serif structure with elevated contrast and sharper, more stylized finishing, creating a premium print feel without departing from familiar text-serif proportions. It prioritizes impact and elegance in display and editorial settings while keeping recognizable letterforms for broad readability.
The design reads best when given room: counters are relatively tight, and the hairline links can visually thin out as sizes drop. The uppercase has a strong headline presence, while the lowercase keeps a steady, text-like cadence, making it suitable for systems that mix sizes and emphasis.
